Link Budget Parameters For 3G

The document outlines the key parameters used in a 3G/UMTS link budget. It includes input parameters like frequency band, cell edge throughput, environment, and output parameters like path loss, receiver sensitivity and coverage planning metrics like maximum pathloss and cell radius. The parameters are organized into tables covering transmitter side, receiver side and final coverage planning output.
